Introduction
Jack of All Trades Achievement requires you to get a kill with a melee, mounted melee, ranged, mounted ranged and couch lance kill in a single skirmish round and there are usually 2 or 3 servers has active players which has 12 people (6v6). So it is nearly impossible if you are not a hardcore player.

This guide aims to get the achievement easiest as possible as solo or with 1 friend.

The Method
After countless attempts I decided to host a server with bots and this is how you going to get it also without damaging your brain.

First you need to follow the guide below if you want to host a server.

I KNOW YOU ARE GONNA VOMIT TO SEE THIS VIDEO BUT LISTEN ...


In the description there is a file you must download to completely setup the server in that file you will see a config file. Open it and delete everything and paste the commands below.

Just delete the number of bots section if you want to try it with your friend.

After that you are ready to follow to guide and start your server. But most of the time people struggling to connect their servers as the game gives an error as Connection Timed Out. It is related with the port. You can not forward a port if you do not have static IP(in most cases) Which I also could not manage to do it.

So if you can not create a custom server by yourself, you need to find a site which offers dedicated server service but you need to find a site that offers a free trial (who wants to give money just for an achievement right?) and most of them provides 1 or 2 day trial without a single penny. I wont be sharing any site name because this is not an ad (This path is much easier than creating yourself, this is how I done it also. Just use the config commands which I shared above)

You may continue from there.

Once the sever is created, game will be in warmup mode. You can get the achievement in warmup. just kill bots with melee, mounted melee, ranged, mounted ranged and a couch lance.

If you set an admin password and joined the server as admin you can change factions. Just change to khuzait and take khuzait lancer. It will be much easier since lancer has a horse, couched lance, bow and hammer which is all of you need.

After spending so much time this is how I get the achievement as solo. I hope it will work out for you also.

Yes. This guide should've been created a long ago. Thank you, mister :lunar2019piginablanket:
